The bug report for breadcrumb in itself is no longer relevant since that
code isn't there anymore.  This is a duplicate of

   https://github.com/joaotavora/breadcrumb/issues/3

which has already been solved.  I updated the autoloads to use
longhand versions already a couple of months ago.

I'll leave it to you if this issue can be closed or not.

Anyway, the problem with shorthands and autoloads remains.
The GitHub user 'dickmao' proposed a patch there, which I
didn't test, but I attach here.

My idea for an alternative patch would be for the "autoload
extractor" (which I'm not familiar with) to see the shorthand
autoload but place it in longhand form in the generated
autoloads file.  I don't have a patch for that idea,
unfortunately.
